User Report Information [READ BEFORE POSTING] - Gaming - 2011-09-30 23:07

SUBMITTING A USER REPORT

Before you post a user report, we ask that you read the following information.

✖ YOU SHOULD NOT FORUM REPORT WHEN:
  • The user broke a one-off minor rule which didn't hinder anyone's gameplay,
  • The user was polite and stopped when notified about the rule (provided the original rule-break wasn't too severe).
IMPORTANT NOTICE: You should always try talking to rule-breakers first. A lot of problems can be resolved by politely talking to people. With that being said, severe rule-breaks should still be reported after.

✔ YOU SHOULD FORUM REPORT WHEN:
  • The user broke a very serious rule (e.g. continuous intentional ramming, being racist/very abusive, using hacks) and any other time when the user ruins - or has the potential of ruining - the gameplay of others,
  • The user became rude or simply did not care upon being told that they were breaking the rules.
These lists may not necessarily include every scenario.


Please:
  • Include all the relevant evidence. Admins have access to the chatlog. Please be advised that due to LFS limitations, no InSim-related messages and displays will show up in replays.
  • Ensure your report is written accurately whilst maintaining relevance to the incident. Make it easy for the [TC] Member who has to deal with it!
  • Review the Reporting Rule-Breakers and getting Help part of the server rules.
  • Use the following code format - write your answers AFTER the [/b] tags:

Please note that we have amended the User Reporting template.

Reports that are currently open do not need to be changed. New reports must use the updated format.
